Tottenham Hotspur have reportedly agreed on a deal in principle with Rosario Central to sign Alejo Veliz and the player is now set to undergo medical before the move gets finalised, as per the transfer expert Fabrizio Romano.
Spurs have decided to strengthen their frontline by purchasing a new striker as Harry Kane’s future is currently hanging in the balance after the forward opted not to sign an extension despite entering the final year of his current contract.
The Englishman has heavily been linked with a move away from the club and Bayern Munich has been pushing the hardest to lure him away from the newly renovated White Hart Lane.
Several players have been mentioned as potential targets for Tottenham over the last few weeks with Jonathan David and Dusan Vlahovic being among them, but Veliz recently emerged as a serious option.
Fabrizio Romano previously reported that Tottenham opened formal talks with Rosario Central to sign the 19-year-old having agreed on a long-term contract with the player.
Now, writing on Twitter, Romano has claimed that Spurs have agreed on a deal in principle with the South American side to purchase Veliz and the North London club are set to spend a fee of around €15m[£13m] plus add-ons to acquire his service
